Call for Papers: Special Issue on Brain Simulation and Spiking Neural Networks

During the past 10 years, many experiments have been implemented with the aim of improving our understanding on the brain’s structure and function. Alongside, simulation neuroscience has become an important strategy to investigate how the brain works. The Human Connectome Project in the US started in 2009, and aimed to provide a big human brain mapping dataset on which many brain models have already been tested. In the Human Brain Project in the EU, a large-scale virtual rodent brain simulation is being built with the purpose of revealing various brain activities. In Japan, whole human-scale brain simulations on the Fugaku supercomputer are being established to investigate how neural networks develop their learning process.
On the other hand, the foundation of cognitive computing and control mechanism can be revealed from the simulations of brain circuits and the neural dynamics. Moreover, these are also critical to improve current artificial intelligent systems and for building brain intelligence level algorithms.
In this special issue, we invite researchers to present their state-of-the-art approaches, introduce recent advances and therefore show the potential of brain-simulation-related technologies.

NeuroNovember is a collaborative youth-led initiative, jointly organized by Project Encephalon and Stimulus, to delve deeper into the fascinating field of neuroscience in our uniquely curated 4-day NeuroNovember Convention. It's essentially aimed at raising awareness regarding the plethora of diverse branches that neuroscience entails. This unique four-day event will span throughout two weekends in November 2020 featuring, workshops, panels, sessions, competitions, and various other opportunities to engage in interaction and network with leading speakers, organizations, and ventures actively shaping the future of neuroscience.

Registrations close on 21 Nov, 10 AM IST.
